Flexibility In The City Government. The details of the Des Moines plan of commission government are familiar to the readers of the Palladium, and from time to time we have commented upon the progress that that city is making in efficient government. We wish to call the attention of our readers to the flexibility of the system. The Des Moines plan calls for the division of the city work into five departments. The most efficient of these has been the department of streets and public improvements. The reason for this is because John Mac Vicar is an efficient public official. But the weakest department so far for there is always a weakest departmenthas been the police department. Therefore the Des Moines commission put the department in the hands of Mac Vicar and allowed him to direct the general operation of his old department the department of streets and public improvements.

There is a very intimate connection between the work of the street department and the police department or ought to be and so it is more than fitting that the two departments should be welded. Some time ago there was a slight ruction between the police and the street cleaning department in Richmond. We do not mean that it was serious it was over unclean alleys but it showed a lack of the oil of cooperation that keeps the machinery running well. May we suggest that it was probably due more to the system of government here than to those two public officials, Gormon and Genn?

Five States. North Dakota Nebraska . Wisconsin Oregon New Jersey these days the people of five

polls and declare their preference of the voters of both parties for candidates for the presidency. On the same day they will choose their delegates to the national conventions. It Beeras to us that the people in those states have something on the

people in Indiana. The people here hold primaries for

their presidential candidates they have nothing to do with. The eyes of the country will be on these five states and the story that they will tell can not but indicate how things are running. It may well be that the story of the five states will determine who is to be the next president or will the packed convention still do the work?

BANKERS THEME TO BE MONEY MATTERS Association to Debate Best Method to Make Money System Sound. (Natlona News Association) NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 21. Governo Sanders, of Louisiana, Mayor Behrmann, of New Orleans, and President Walmsley, of the New Orleans Clearing House association, today formally welcomed to New Orleans the delegates to the tiiirty-seventh annual convention of the American Bankers' association which will continue in session -throughout the week. It is exThe Aldrich plan for a National Reserve association, the most vital topic of discussion in banking circles today will be dealt with in all its details and modifications during the course of the convention, and other matters of interest to the entire country will be taken up. In his address welcoming the coni ventlon to the city. Mayor Martin Behrmann paid the bankers' an unusual compliment. "I am deeply sensible," he said, "of the honor of address ing so distinguished a body, and it is with genuine pleasure that, as chief executive of this city, I extend to one and all of you a right royal welcome. The banker represents the most vital force in commerce; the bank is the synonym of progress, and banking is at its highest development. As a matter of fact, the banker today wields a greater influence than royalty, and his fiat is for peace. He is the diplomat par excellence. In our own country the banker has no superior in any walk of life." President R. M. Walmsley, of the New Orleans Clearing House associa tion, in his welcoming remarks, em phasized to the bankers the import ance of the changes they are undertak ing to bring about in prevailing sys

The addresses of welcome came after the invocation, which was by the Most Reverend James H. Blenk, Archbishop of the Catholic Diocese of New Orleans. They were followed by the response of the President of the Bankers' association, F. O. Watts, of Nashville, Tenn. Laments Criticism. President Watts began by lamenting the attitude of some classes of persons toward bankers in general "because our activities are too often either misunderstood or purposely misrepresented." He spoke exultingly of the increase in membership of the bankers' association during the last nine years from 6,354 to 12,232, commenting that "the accomplishment and promise are fully in keeping with the numerical increase." He announced an increase of 827 during the past year. Turning to the subject of the "Aidrich plan," he said : "It is to be hoped that the present convention will give its approval in such a positive way that the whole country will understand that the bankers have at least agreed with practical unainimity on the cause of financial unrest and its remedy. "No banker should lose an opportunity to urge that the settlement of the question be apart from partisanship or to help make it clear to the country that the proposal is such that it will always be away from the control of designing politicians or of any selfish interest. If the bankers and business men, who must be the leaders in the movement, succeed in keeping a the question non-partisan and in convincing the public beyond a reasonable doubt of the integrity of the control, then its enactment into law will be an easy accomplishment. Centralization Plan. "Fortunately, we have the hearty cooperation of many commercial and business organizations, and we need only to do our part well. Surely there is no good reason why the question should become a partisan one. There is no party principal involved in such a co-operative agency and nothing but prejudice or the extremity for an issue, which certainly does not exist in this day, could cause either of the two great political parties to treat the subject differently from what they should proposals for good health or pure food, or river improvements, or the building of a great canal. If by any chance it drifts unavoidably by the bankers and business men into a partisan alignment, the only hope of making it an effective issue to the party opposing the plan would lie in its ability to appeal to prejudice through talk of centralization and control by special interest. Neither proposition could be maintained before the thoughtful citizenship of this country, and when the light of reason entered, the party making such an appeal would suffer as such parties have always suffered in the past. "We can 6how that instead of being centralization the proposal is decentralization, the power coming to the central agency for all banks in just such a way as the power is placed in the chief executive of the nation. The president becomes the composite of American ideas, and when not so there occurs a shifting of authority. So the Central Reserve association would always be the composite of the shareholding banks, and, therefore, standing for the best in our business life." The president's address was followed by the annual report of the general secretary, Fred E. Farnsforth, of New York, and by the report of the treasurer, Arthur Reynolds, of Des Moines, Iowa. Mr. Reynolds reported an increase in the balance in the association's treasury during the last year and volunteered the expression that "The American Bankers' association is to day one of the greatest organizations of its kind the world has ever seen." Report on Legislation. The report of Thomas B. Paton, of New York, tlje general counsel, was confined almost entirely to the subject

The report of the Standing Protective committee was presented by Fred E. Farnsworth, secretary. It related the efforts of this special department in dealing with criminals against the members of the bankers' association. At the conclusion of this part of the program, Hon. Nelson W. Aldrich, president of the National Monetary commission and former Senator from Rhode Island, began his presentation of the subject that has made him famous "The proposed Monetary Plan." Mr. Aldrich's address had been looked forward to by the delegates as the most important during the entire convention. The address of Mr. Aldrich outlining his proposed new departure will form the basis for the further discussion of the big banking problem during the remainder of the convention.

After he had been deprived of his great asset the power of speech, for more than four years. David Newell Shuter, a widely known lawyer, has regained his voice by means of hypnotism. Mr. Shuter, who now is associate counsel for a druggist's syndicate, lost his voice while speaking for the Initiative and Referendum league at Portland, Ore., nearly four years ago, and had consulted physicians in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Yuma, Ariz., and in other western cities, all being unanimous in the statement that the power of speech was gone forever. The hypnotist who is credited with the cure said that Mr. Shuter lost hia voice through nervous shock, probably the result of a nightmare. An examination had shown that there was no organic disorder, and that it was merely a case of paralysis due to shock. He decided, therefore, that the case was one for hypnotic, rather than medicinal treatment, and set to work accordingly. After the first treatment, which was given about two months ago, Shuter showed signs of being able to articulat. He improved rapidly from that time and now his voice shows the same power it possessed before he was afflicted, except that the vocal chords have become somewhat weakened by disuse. Front Royal is the name of a town in Warren county, Virginia. At first it bore the title "Royal Oak," because of an immense tree upon its commons.

Dandruff And Itching Scalp Yield To Zemo Treatment Why should you continue to experiment with salves, greasy lotions and fancy hair dressings trying to rid your scalp of germ life. They can't do it because they cannot penetrate to the seat of the trouble and draw the germ life to the surface of the scalp and destroy it. Why not try a PROVEN REMEDY? One that will do this. We have a remedy that will rid the scalp of germ life and in this way will cure DANDRUFF and ITCHING SCALP. This remedy is ZEMO, a clean, refined, penetrating scalp tonic that goes right to the seat of the trouble and drives the germ life to the surface and destroys iL A shampoo with ZEMO (ANTISEPTIC) SOAP and one application of ZEMO will entirely rid the scalp of Dandruff and scurf.

PACKERS MAY FACE A JURYWEDNESDAY Trial of Indicted Beef Barons Promises to Be Most Important One. (National News Association) CHICAGO, Nov. 21.T-The most extensive criminal prosecution of large j trust officials ever attempted under! the Sherman anti-trust law may begin I Wednesday in the United States Dis-1 trict Court before Judge George A. Carpenter, when the heads of the Beef trust are placed on trial on the charge of forming a combination in restrain of trade, which it is alleged controls absolutely the price of fresh meat in the United States. The multi-mil-lionaire heads of the so-called beef i trust are liable to a fine of $5,000, or imprisonment for one year, or both. There are five counts in the indictments charging the packers with having entered into a conspiracy to control the fresh meat prices of the country and two in each of the other indictments, viz: One charging the formation of the National Packing company as a means of controlling the fresh meat prices and the other seeking to monopolize the fresh meat business contrary to the Sherman anti-trust law. Their Combined Wealth. The wealth of the indicted Beef Barons approaches the thousand million mark and they have engaged some of the most brilliant lawyers in the United States. Those who face criminal proceedings tomorrow are Louis F. Swift, president of Swift and Co.; Edward F. Swift, vice president of Swift and Co.; Edward Tilden, president of

the National Packing Co.; J. Ogden Ar-i an indictment against tne ivationai mour, president of Armour and Co.;PackinS company and its subsidary Arthur Meeker, his general manager; concerns. A bill in equity was filed Edward Morris, resident of Morris asking that the National Packing com-

and Co.; Francis A. Fowler, director. Swift and Co.; Thomas J. Connors, Armour's superintendent and Louia Hyman, manager for Morris and Co. The trial will be of the greatest importance. It will not only determine whether or not the National Packing company is an illegal corporation controlling absolutely the price of meat in the United States but it will also determine whether or not the eight year investigation and prosecution of the beef trust officials and the expenditure of vast sums from the public treasury has been in vain. At the offices of the United States District Attorney, James H. Wilkerson, who is in charge of the prosecution, it was stated today that the government had retained the services of Oliver H. Pagin, and Barton Corneau, both of the United States Department of Justice and widely known as "trust busters." In addition to this counsel District Attorney Wilkerson will be assisted by Elwood Godman. The packers' attorneys will include John S. Miller, famous for his connection with the Standard Oil and other cases; George T. Buckingham and Levy Mayer. The presenting of testimony will take np a great length of time and it is expected that the case will not go to the jury for weeks and perhaps months. History of the Case.

gone along in this wise: February 18, 1903, Judge Peter S. Grosscup, at the request of the federal authorities, issued an injunction that restrained the Chicago packers from entering into a combination. This was the first move of the United States against the Chicago men. Matters ran along with desultory legal firing on both sides after this for two years. Then in February of that year the Department of Justice began to gather evidence of the alleged existence of the beef trust. A special grand jury to hear the case against the Backers, as government agents had completed it, was called in March, 1905. Indictments against four companies and sixteen individual packers were voted by the federal grand jury, July 1, 1905. In December the cases were called for trial and were postponed. , In March. 190t. Judge Humphreys sitting in the United States Circuit j Court rendered a decision referred to I sonce as the "packers immunity bath." The circumstances were these: Soon i after the formation of the Department of Commerce and Labor and then Commissioner of Corporations, James Ru dolph Garfield, began, not for prosecution, but for the use of the Depart ment of Commerce nd Labor, an ini vestigation of the alleged beef trust, j Information desired by the Cornmis ' sioner was given by the packers under promise of Garfield, that they would be immune from prosecution by the ' government for any violations of the anti-trust laws as they might be re ! vealed in the information. Judge j Humphreys held that on this account ! the packers could not be called upou 1 to answer the charges in the govern ment indictment. Hence the "immu nity bath." In 1908 a new investigation was begun and dropped with no apparent reason. In 1909 still another investigation was begun in Chicago. In March, 1910, the federal grand jury returned pany be dissolved. i A New Investigation. j In June of the same year Judge Lan- i dis quashed the indictment. At this time a new grand jury investigation j was ordered. The packers, after a hard fight, were indicted September 12, 1910, and then began another long fight to prevent the cases from coming to trial. Every legal expedient known to high trained corporation lawyers was resorted to. These attorneys raised a new contention and one that was extraordinary. They pleaded this: That the beef barons could not be indicted because of the "immunity bath" granted them by Judge Humphreys. They contended that the packers were permitted by virtue of this "bath" to go ahead and form a combine although they did not admit that this had been done and to do whatever they liked with the fresh meat business of the country. The contention was new. The packers asked for the quashing of the indictments. In March of the present year Judge Carpenter rendered his decision refusing to quash the indictment and ordering the indicted packers to trial.
